My doc has me on 300mg in the morning and 300mg in the evening. And come tomorrow night will be doubling the nightly dosage, and then I will start the blood testing / increase / blood test routine. They will be checking on my thyroid levels as well so if that’s out of wack, or the Lithium screws with it that should be addressed also.

I have been one so many medications that lithium is the only class/ family of drugs I have not tried for my social anxiety and mood swings. So this is pretty much my last shot. (And yes I have been though many years of counseling too) So I guess my doc anyway believes lithium might help with Anxiety and my mood swings? Who knows, I will sure let everyone know if it does.
